The Iowa Caucuses are most commonly known for the role they play in selecting each political party's nominee for president every four years. Under Iowa law, the Iowa Caucuses are the first event in the presidential nomination season in the country. The Caucuses are also held in non-presidential even numbered years and serve mainly for the purpose of selecting local party leadership and delegates to the party's conventions. The Caucuses are under the direction of the different state political parties and the Election Department within the Auditor's Office plays no role in their administration.
